I feel like mentioning it because I thought it was funny, but the guy that started the Bowsette Meme was given a trophy from Niconico and Pixiv. They made sure he got it when Deluxe released too, go figure. https://twitter.com/ayyk92/status/1083825086375723008

Heath posted:Berseria is so refreshing a story to come from a Tales game of all things. A woman is turned into a monster and instead of lamenting her fate she leans into it hard and makes no bones about being out for revenge and is so single minded about it the whole time. It's great. I'm also one of the people who played Symphonia as a kid (and liked it) as my first and only Tales game until Berseria, so I'm looking forward to playing Vesperia though. I bought it and I'm only like an hour into it, but it's.... a Tales game!

I picked up Vesp and it was my favorite game of the series. Least that's what I remember. Almost scared I'm gonna gently caress up that memory

I like how upfront it is about how ridiculously anime it's going to get. Yes, this dog has a sword, a rad scar over it's eye and is smoking a pipe like an old samurai. No, it's just a dog.

Vesperia has good characters and a few moments that are so starkly different from the rest of the games in the series that make it memorable. I won't say what those moments are but Yuri is a good JRPG protagonist. The little pirate girl could ruin it idk what her deal is because she came about later

il serpente cosmico posted:I played them with an xbone controller. This is better in some ways (mapping a button to shake is a huge quality of life improvement), and worse in others (the pointer is a bit awkward, but not terribly so). Could you? I tried a bit but could never get something that felt right. It's put me off from playing because I do want 1440p and no wiimote horseshit. Screens of relevant settings windows would be enough if that's easier.

GreatGreen posted:How would it rank among the rest of the 2D Mario platformers? The worst of the past three generations of console/handheld Mario games. It wasn't worth $60 at Wii U's launch and it's not worth $60 now. Skip it unless you're absolutely frothing at the mouth for more 2D sidescrolling Mario. ("Worst" is not to say it's a bad game, but it's not great.)

I agree it wasn’t worth the $60 at launch for the Wii U version but this version includes New Super Luigi U as well so it’s a better value. I’d rank both of them as being better than all the other NSMB games but yeah, it’s not as good as other mainline Mario games. Still worth a playthrough though, especially if you play it coop.

It is absolutely rude as gently caress about its hidden things and god help you if you're shooting for trophies/achievements in it. Also the reason its fondly remembered is for Yuri and the stuff his character does which does not normally happen in these sorts of games although when the plot shifts to its last 3rd that goes by the wayside for somewhat obvious reasons and most people view the ending portion a little dimly.

I wasted 10 minutes trying to pull this off, finally got it, then found out that it automatically ends at 50 seconds and doing it the intended way is trivial. I hope you're happy.

I'm waiting to get my Jumpgate portable dock thing, and in the meantime I'm looking for a good case that'll fit it. I have my Splatoon 2 edition slim case, which does have a mesh pocket, but is so snug that you can't even fit the joycon straps in there without the whole case uncomfortably bulging outward. What's a case that's not too thick (preferably less than 2 inches) but still has a deep enough storage space for the "core drive" component of the Jumpgate (3.4" x 1.4" x 0.4" according to the Kickstarter campaign)? Edit: Would also prefer not to have those silly elastic bands that a lot of cases seem to have and are a pain in the rear end to put on/take off, though it's not a dealbreaker

There's a webm floating around from the wii u version of some guy killing both of them, somehow lodging himself against the inner wall, flipping all over the place and more. (Actually might be the one with 4 fire bros) The games boring but its movement is pretty good.

These are the configs I used: https://mega.nz/#!BJwE2YiK!p8illyEmH5Ndi9Ga2C0EOhXgdN6GEYPEkFSVQ_tOUz4 There are three; one for regular playforming, one for the ball rolling levels, and one for the surfing levels. You'll push RB and use the right stick to use the pointer. You'll need to modify one of them for the gimmick levels in SMG2, but I didn't find it too difficult to find something that worked.

CharlestheHammer posted:Eu from what the tales thread says Yuri and what he does are the worst part. Gonna be frank, most Tales games have half or more of the characters contribute nothing. There is a character in Symphonia who I believe entire impact on the plot is "throws a fireball to open a door once in a cutscene, does not actually have a fireball move in game" and he's not particularly unique in the Tales franchise. Having Yuri dominate the story might be a bad thing, but his entire character gimmick is antithetical to how most JRPG narratives are constructed and the half-baked morality they espouse its not a bad diversion*, but obviously if it were every game it'd be annoying as heck. *spoilers Most JRPGs the villains get away, laugh at our heroes, reoccur. Our heros never do the death blow unless forced into a corner and every villain who dies gets a tragic backstory. Here, people are just evil and Yuri just loving murders them when he gets alone with them which he does with regularity for the first 1/2-2/3rds of the game

What's the general story? When I think about it I DO NOT have time for a JRPG, but I'm very curious. One my last summers in high school I would spend all day out with my friends and all night from like midnight to 4 playing Symphonia which I 100%, new game + both story lines etc. Then I'd wake up at ten am and do it all over again. It was idyllic. The cool dog. Is it a character you can play and fight as? Most other characters weren't nearly as good to use as Lloyd but it was fun to do so regardless.

It was idyllic. The cool dog is the second party member you get and is literally just a dog who smokes and uses swords. The story is split into 3 pretty discrete chunks and the first two are quite good, mostly again for the above reasons about Yuri and being for a JRPG relatively low stakes, while the third one sort of sucks a bunch and everybody thinks the game falls apart at that point.

caldrax posted:At the very least a toggle, my thumb gets sore if I play for more than 2 levels in portable. Yeah I have the same complaint in mega Man for buster charging. 11's item to do it automatically was a godsend There's a pretty bad control issue I've seen in zero reviews, even ones complaining about the controls. You can toggle the jump and dash buttons to be on A and B or Y and B respectively, but when you do this it changes it for ALL controllers. So I was playing with my son and gave him the NES controller, and I had to do the toggle so he would have a dash button for be B. But this meant on my SF30Pro I also had to play with A and B. It was a pain! Also the SF30Pro Dpad isn't as good as I thought, it is always registering down presses I didn't intend John Wick of Dogs fucked around with this message at 13:53 on Jan 12, 2019 |

Since we're chatting about Mario. The only Mario platformer I've played until this year was NSMB on the DS. I enjoyed it so I picked up Super Mario Bros and Super Mario World, but found the first one way to unforgiving for me. Super Mario World is also a lot harder than New Super Mario. Which surprised me. I had to farm 99 lives and it me 50 of those to get through world six. Maybe I'm just bad at video games.

Nah, chocolate island is pretty tough as I recall. Granted it's been a while since I've played it. The whole butter bridge world I found a bit more challenging overall though.
